Dr. Eman El Sawaf Anatomy & Embryology Department Faculty Of Medicine, Helwan University -Introduction to general anatomy -Skeletal system Objectives By the end of this lecture student should be able to: -Explain the definition of anatomy & the anatomical terms. -Describe the anatomy of the skeletal system. Contents - Definition of Anatomy - Anatomical Terms. - Definition of osteology. - Functions of bones. - Classification of bones. Definition Of Anatomy Definition of Anatomy - It is the science which studies the gross structure of the human body. Anatomical Terms Anatomical Terms - Terms of positions - Terms of planes - Terms of relations Terms of positions 1. Anatomical position 2. Supine position 3. Prone position Anatomical position The body is standing upright. The upper limbs The eyes are looking are stretched. forward. The palms are The thumb is facing anteriorly. directed laterally. The lower limbs are straight The feet are close together. The body lies on the back. The body lies on the abdomen. Terms of planes 1. Sagittal plane Median plane – Para median 2. Coronal (frontal) plane 3. Horizontal (transverse) plane Terms of planes Plane Definition Sagittal plane -Median plane: Vertical plane divides the body into symmetrical right & left halves. -Paramedian plane: Any plane parallel to the median. Coronal (frontal) Vertical plane divides the body into anterior plane and posterior parts. Horizontal Transverse plane divides the body into upper (transverse) plane and lower parts. Terms of Relations - Anterior - Posterior - Superior - Inferior - Medial – Lateral - Intermediate - Proximal - Distal - Superficial - Deep - External - Internal Term Definition Anterior Near to the (Ventral) front of the body. Posterior Near to the (Dorsal) back of the body. Term Definition Superior Superior Near to the head (Upper) or the upper end. Inferior Near to the feet (Lower) or the lower end. Inferior Term Definition Medial Near to the median plane. Lateral Away from the median plane. Intermediate Between the medial and lateral. Term Definition Proximal Near to the trunk. Distal Away from the trunk. Proximal Distal Term Definition Superficial Near to the surface of the body. Deep Away from the surface of the body. Term Definition External Away from the (outer) cavity. Internal Near to the (inner) cavity. Remember Definition Anatomical Terms -Positions -Planes -Relations Skeletal System Definition Of Osteology Osteology Study of bones Functions Of Bones Functions Of Bones Give shape and support for the body. Functions Of Bones Protection for the vital organs. Functions Of Bones Muscle attachment and movements. Functions Of Bones Calcium & Phosphorus storage. Functions Of Bones Formation of blood cells by the bone marrow. Classification Of Bones Classification Of Bones - Regional. - Developmental. - Structural. - Morphological. Classification Of Bones Regional: (According to the site) - Axial: Skull, Sternum, Ribs &Vertebrae. - Appendicular: Bones of the upper & lower Limbs. Classification Of Bones Developmental: (According to the bone development). - Membranous. - Cartilaginous. - Membrano-cartilaginous (Mixed type). Classification Of Bones Developmental: - Membranous: Example: - Skull (bones forming the vault of the skull). - Scapula. Classification Of Bones Developmental: - Cartilaginous: Example: - Bones forming the limbs. Classification Of Bones Developmental: - Membrano-cartilaginous (Mixed type): Example: - Mandible. - Clavicle. Classification Of Bones Structural: (According to the structure) - Hard (Compact). - Spongy (Cancellous). Structural: -Hard (Compact): Classification Of Bones -Spongy (Cancellous): The hard bone forms the The cancellous bone forms the interior of the ends of the long cortical covering bone (1) and the interior of all of all bones. other types of bones (2). 1 2 Classification Of Bones Morphological: (According to the shape). Long (eg. Clavicle, humerus, femur ….) Short(eg. Carpals & Tarsals) Flat(eg. Scapula , Sternum, Ribs...) Irregular(eg. Vertebrae, hip…) Sessamoid(eg. Patella) Classification Of Bones Morphological: Sesamoid bone - It is bony nodules which embedded in the tendons of some muscles & ligaments. - It protects the tendons and ligaments from compression and friction. e.g patella. Morphological: Classification Of Bones Long bone Upper End The long bone has a shaft & two ends. Shaft Lower End Remember Definition Function Classification - Regional. - Developmental. - Structural. - Morphological.
